The Place of Honeymoons

First published in 1913, at the height of Harold MacGrath's popularity, 'The Place of Honeymoons' is a delightful romance from the golden age of American popular fiction — a story of love, laughter, and the happy complications that follow when hearts refuse to follow the plans made for them. Brisk, witty, and warm, it offers modern readers a window into the courtship customs, social expectations, and escapist pleasures of a vanished era, told with the page-turning energy that made MacGrath one of the best-selling novelists of his day. This edition returns the complete, unabridged original text to print, pairing it with a new introduction that places the novel in its historical and literary context, along with reader's notes illuminating the period details, language, and customs that contemporary readers took for granted. Whether you are discovering MacGrath for the first time or revisiting an old favorite, this volume invites you to settle in and enjoy. Part of The Founding Texts Library.
